Republic Government

Democracy and fair representation are at the core of Republic government. Every member world in the Republic is entitled to a seat in the Galactic Senate and the right to vote on legislation. Due to the sheer size of the Senate, which represents thousands of worlds, Senators negotiate alliances–occasionally through backroom deals–to strengthen their position on important issues.Large-scale military deployments must be approved by the Senate. Jedi activities are officially outside the Senate’s jurisdiction; unofficially, the Jedi Council prefers to be in harmony with the Senate’s wishes, and avoid a threat to their independence from Senate action.The head of the Galactic Senate–and therefore the Republic itself–is the Supreme Chancellor. The Supreme Chancellor is elected by the Senate and serves a four-year term. In recent years, campaigns to become Supreme Chancellor have become more and more low-key, as candidates fear assassination by the Empire.
